[01:46] <BHSPitMonkey> desertc, that's awesome, have their people talk to my people
[01:48] <desertc> BHSPitMonkey: Uh, thanks!
[01:50] <BHSPitMonkey> desertc, heh
[01:50] <BHSPitMonkey> as in, have your dept. chair explain to MY uni's department chair why ubuntu can work for us too :)
[01:51] <BHSPitMonkey> I should see about having it distributed at the bookstore, like Win and Mac are.
[01:51] <desertc> I'd be happy to talk with them.  I called upon them to see how they were doing.  Wanted to do some marketing in my local community.
[01:52] <BHSPitMonkey> rather, I should bring that up at the next lug meeting...
[01:52] <desertc> Give me some contact information and I'll set up a call.
[01:53] <BHSPitMonkey> desertc, heh, I wouldn't even know who to lobby to.
[01:53] <BHSPitMonkey> it's something I should get the LUG here behind
[01:53] <BHSPitMonkey> what's your university, so that I may cite your efforts?
[01:55] <desertc> Sorry, I don't like to give out information like that on IRC.  I'll let you know when I have written up my success story, once I get their permission to publish it.
[01:55] <BHSPitMonkey> understood

[13:56] <popey> http://blog.wired.com/gadgets/2007/10/200-everex-gree.html
[13:56] <popey> one for UWN?
[13:57] <boredandblogging> popey: yeah, already added a couple everex stories
[13:58] <michaelramm> morning Alan!
[13:58] <michaelramm> i read about that yesterday
[13:59] <michaelramm> My walmart will have them!
[14:02] <michaelramm> Also mentioned here: http://urltea.com/1yew
[14:03] <michaelramm> My favorite line: "The funniest thing is that Everex deliberately built a large box, even though there's not much under the hood. This is a pure psychological play to woo the pickup truck set, who believe a Chevy S10 is a sure sign of sexual inadequacy."
[14:10] <Burgundavia> wow
[14:11] <michaelramm> boredandblogging: PLEASE use that quote!!
[14:51] <juliux> hi Vorian 
[14:51] <Vorian> hey juliux

[19:40] <DGMurdockIII> is tthere any devs in here
[19:41] <DGMurdockIII> or let me make this simple
[19:44] <DGMurdockIII> here is somthing i thnk would help make get more people to install ubuntu if they could have a UI that look like windows xp or vista one or even there max os look and the other think i thnk would help is the the explores was like the one in windows
[19:48] <tonyyarusso> DGMurdockIII: You realize that would be a) sure to anger every existing user, b) severely limiting in the power of the UI, and c) Illegal, right?
[19:50] <DGMurdockIII> what i mean is when you install ubuntu you give them the option to install gnome, KDE or one that lok like windows and you have a picture showw what they all look like
[19:55] <tonyyarusso> You can't do that.
[19:55] <tonyyarusso> It wouldn't be legal, nor reasonable.
[20:30] <Burgundavia> hmm, that was interesting
[20:41] <somerville32> indeed.
[20:44] <Burgundavia> hey somerville32
[20:44] <Burgundavia> long time, no see
[20:44] <Burgundavia> somebody was looking for you the other day
[20:44] <somerville32> Really?
[20:44] <Burgundavia> ya
[20:59] <somerville32> Burgundavia, You wouldn't happen to have a clue to as who it may have been?
[21:04] <Burgundavia> nope
